On our first day there, she was 1 to go for a walk down to the port, so we dropped our bags at the accommodation and set off to explore. I was feeling quite exhausted after the flight, and while walking down a steep cobblestone street, I 2 . I flew through the air and fell 3 on the ground, face first. For some reason, the instinct to put my hands out to cushion the fall hadn’t 4 , so I landed straight on my chin. I knew immediately that my jaw was broken — I’d heard the awful crack. Before long, blood was gushing down my face. My daughter helped me get up and a crowd gathered to help. One of those people was an Italian woman, who opened her handbag and took out a pristine white 5 with a lace trim. She handed it to me and said: “Use this to clean up the blood.” I protested, saying I didn’t want to ruin it, but she 6 . Before long the ambulance came and I was rushed off to hospital. Her kind act was the best thing that happened to me on an 7 terrible day. I’ve learned that bad things happen in life, but, sometimes, good things will come from them that take the edge off. This was one of those times What that lovely woman did was so unobtrusive, offered without 8 of anything in return. Oddly, it was the futility of her gesture that made it so impactful — she was 9 something beautiful just to mop up some blood. I never saw her again.

To secure a place in SHAPE, students need to ________. A. show their family financial state B prove their learning capability C. pay application fees before deadline D. answer all the given questions B My fingers trembled as I signed the pre-medical application form. The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads. Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” — something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your ‘impractical’ skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 24. What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1? A. She had given up the hobby of drawing. B. She was excited about studying medicine. C. She regretted not practicing painting earlier. D. She felt torn between art and medical study. 25. Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skills” as a ________. A. plus B. leisure C. distraction D. burden 26. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It convinced her of art’s role in healthcare. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It directed her toward doctor training. 27. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. A picture is worth a thousand words. C. Two strings to your bow light the way. D. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. C During a digital faculty meeting, Brian Scholl, a psychologist and cognitive scientist at Yale University, found himself reacting unexpectedly to two colleagues. One was a close collaborator with whom he usually saw eye-to-eye, while the other was someone he tended to have differing opinions from. On that particular day, though, he found himself siding with the latter. “Everything he said was so rich and resonant,” Scholl recalls. Upon reflection, Scholl realized that there was a key difference between the two men’s messaging: the former used a junky built-in microphone on an old laptop, whereas the latter called in from a professional-grade home-recording studio. Scholl began to suspect that it was the sound quality, rather than the content of their arguments, that had swayed his judgment. Ample research has shown that factors such as confident tones or accents influence how others perceive the speakers. In a hope to see whether this tendency would hold when the only difference was technological distortion, Scholl and his team created audio recordings in which a human voice read one of three scripts. Each script dealt with a different topic: the reader posed as a job applicant, a potential romantic partner or someone describing a car accident. Some recordings were clear; others were manipulated to sound tinny (尖细的). “If you spend time on Zoom, you probably know tons of people who sound like this,” Scholl says. The researchers recruited 5,000 people online, each of whom listened to one script and then answered simple questions about their judgment of the speaker by rating on a continuous scale. Across all three scripts, participants consistently rated the tinny voices as less hirable, credible and intelligent. The findings speak to the “deep power of perception,” Scholl says, and its ability to make us behave irrationally. “Everybody knows that this kind of auditory manipulation does not reflect on the person,” he says. “But our perception is operating, in some ways, autonomously from higher-level thought.” Nadine Lavan, a psychologist at Queen Mary University of London, says the findings are somewhat expected. “But this doesn’t mean the results are not important,” she says. The study raises questions, she continues, about how much of an effect microphone quality may have in more complicated real-world settings. For example, abstract ratings of being hirable are informative, but real-life decisions include much more complex trading off of different factors. Assuming the findings do hold in the real world, Scholl says the take-away lesson is clear: “You should really find out how you sound to other people online. And if you don’t sound good, take some remedial action,” he says. 28. It is implied in the first two paragraphs that ________. A. Offline relationships shape judgment in digital meetings B. The use of microphones may give rise to differing views C. In-person meetings are more reliable than digital ones D. Technological factors may color listeners’ view 29. What can we learn about Scholl’s research? A. The script was presented in the original voice. B. All other factors except sound quality were controlled. C. Participants believe one’s voice quality matters a lot. D. It shows perception is governed by logical thinking. 30. As for Scholl’s study, which would Nadine Lavan agree? A. It is somewhat simplified yet meaningful. B. It matters little due to lack of new insights. C. It calls on us to check how we sound to others. D. It challenges existing views on microphone quality. D The Age of Information is mushrooming, perhaps even bulging. If you tried to download all the data available today, you’d need more than 180 million years to do so. But you are wrong to assume that all this information would stimulate a boost of innovation to match the output of data. Indeed, the last time we found ourselves in a period of significant innovation, pursuing the ideas with the biggest spark, was more than 120 years ago, in a period called the Age of Insight. Innovations, both big and small, start with a new idea. Often, these ideas occur as a moment of insight—the result of a novel connection in our brains made between existing and new information. Studies show insights involve quiet signals deep in the brain, just under the surface of awareness. Anything that helps us notice quiet signals, such as taking breaks between meetings, only adopting necessary learning approaches or avoiding distractions like social media, can increase the chance of insights. However, it’s becoming more challenging to find those quiet signals with the increasing use of technology, filling every moment with emergencies and an endless supply of content. Besides, we also want to increase the quality of them — to be able to sort through big new ideas and find the ones that have real value, which can be hard to measure. Launched in 2015, the Eureka Scale allows us to assess the strength of our insight experiences on a five-point scale, which is marked by intense emotions, motivation, memory advantage, aftershocks, and following ideas. The Scale combines these five variables into a single value and allows us to define the importance of a new idea. The level-5, insight, involving the richest emotion, motivation, and lasting impact, holds the greatest significance. Because insights are one of the best ways to drive engagement, innovation, and behavior change, the Eureka Scale has broad applications for measuring and improving individual and organizational performance. More importantly, it can be used to measure the impact of different kinds of work environments and learning approaches on participants’ growth — both in the moment or afterward. In order for organizations to benefit from another age of insight, it’s not enough to try to access more data or increase the number of insights we generate. Instead, it’s about making space for the biggest ideas to emerge from all the information. Using the shared language of the Eureka Scale as a way to measure how important ideas are, relative to each other, will enable better decision-making toward practical and competitive outcomes. And if we’re to enter a new age of insight, we must design our environments to allow for the best insight possible to surface. 31. What does the underlined word “bulging” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Stabilizing. B. Shifting. C. Exploding. D. Collapsing. 32. According to the passage, how can the possibility of insights be increased? A. By stepping away from electronic devices. B. By relying on technology to receive regular notices. C. By engaging in ongoing social media interactions. D. By participating in additional training and coaching sessions. 33. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The Eureka Scale controls the influence of our insights. B. A breakthrough has been made in innovation due to a wealth of information. C. Possessing minimal emotional responses is a level-5 insight. D. Both the quantity and quality of insights are essential to innovation. 34. What is the author’s attitude towards the current environment for innovations? A. Uncertain. B. Dissatisfied. C. Unconcerned. D. Optimistic. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We’ve all been there — one minute, we’re checking the news for an update, and the next, we’re waist-deep in a flood of negative news. This compulsive need to scroll through bad news or information, known as doomscrolling, has recently become an all-too-common habit. 35 Psychologists have been studying how this behavior affects our cognitive functions, emotional well-being, and even our ability to focus on the things that matter in our daily lives. The result? Doomscrolling isn’t just a means to pass the time — it’s actively harming our mental health. 36 Instead of making us feel prepared and informed, consuming bad news nonstop actually makes us feel more helpless. For people who already struggle with anxiety or depression, doomscrolling can become a maladaptive coping mechanism — a way to seek control over uncontrollable situations. 37 Beyond the obvious stress and anxiety, doomscrolling messes with how we think. It damages our attention span The brain starts longing for constant stimulation, making it harder to focus on tasks that aren’t delivering the same emotional hit. 38 Doomscrolling overloads our brain. Constant exposure to distressing content fills up our working memory, leaving little room for productive thinking or problem-solving. So, how can we break free from the doomscrolling trap? Altogether, avoiding all bad news isn’t the answer. A wiser choice is to develop healthier digital habits. We can begin by scheduling a specific time to check the news. Meanwhile, focus on what we consume: follow reputable sources and mute accounts that thrive on outrage and fear. For every negative story, seek something uplifting or informative to balance the content. 39 Donate, discuss the topic with a trusted friend, or volunteer for a cause. A. It is not surprising that anxiety is on the rise. B. Unfortunately, instead of helping, it feeds the stress cycle. C. We can get back our focus, mental health, and peace of mind. D. No wonder reading a book feels harder than scrolling social media. E. If a news story indeed upsets us, we can look for real-world ways to contribute! F. Studies show that doomscrollers reported higher levels of anxiety and depression. G. While staying informed matters, constant exposure to negativity does us no favors. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题纸指定区域内作答。 As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a marine biologist and I lived out this fantasy by setting up aquariums(鱼缸)at home. Then, at 20, I was introduced to photographer David Liittschwager, who hired me to help him with a magazine assignment on marine life. David’s assignment was to document the amazing biodiversity found in the ocean. My role was to collect species for him to photograph. Every night, I would cast a floating lamp. Like moths drawn to a flame, mysterious creatures would emerge from the depths in search of this light. I’d then set up aquariums to house them as they waited for David to take their shot. Those evenings made me feel as if I were on another planet. I had never imagined such strange life-forms could exist in our oceans. But I didn’t grasp the true magic of what was in front of me until I saw the photographs David took. The biggest surprise was his image of a baby flounder. I caught this fish by accident. Only later did I notice its two tiny eyeballs staring back at me. But David’s photograph of this flounder revealed a universe of detail that even my eager eyes had missed. His macro lens magnified its ribs. The lightning-fast exposure froze its motion. A precisely aimed light released the rainbow hidden in its skin. And the black background removed all distractions to focus our attention on the quiet beauty at hand. Years after that project, I was snorkeling (潜水) on a shallow reef. Out of the darkness, another baby flounder emerged and settled on my mask. This time I knew what to look for. Before working for David, I had assumed the goal of photography was simply to reproduce an observation so that others could share the same experience. It had never occurred to me that photography could expand our visual perception and therefore teach us to see the world anew. 40. What was the author’s responsibility in David’s assignment? 41. Why was David’s image of a baby flounder the biggest surprise to the author? 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ▶ Encountering a baby flounder while snorkeling deepened the author’s understanding that photography could reproduce an observation. 43. What can help you see the world anew?

Every weekend, I worked with classmates to grow vegetables, water plants and harvest crops. At first, I found it tiring to work under the sun, but I gradually fell in love with labor. This experience has greatly influenced me. I learned that labor creates value and every gain comes from hard work. It also taught me to be responsible and patient. Moreover, I better understood the importance of cooperation and respecting food. Labor has shaped me into a more positive and diligent person. It will always encourage me to face challenges bravely in my future life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
